Please complete the support form for general enquiries,
to report dodgy stories or comments. The website is run in our spare time, so please be patient if we do not get back to you immediately.

Can I change the colours?

Yes, we have added two colour schemes - the default is dark, a second scheme is more basic with
a white background. You can change them in your profile. If you have other colour schemes you would like to see, please let us know.

Something appears to be wrong with the site. What do I do?

The website is ongoing development. Drop us a line with your problem and we
will correct it as soon as possible.

What software does this site use?

Originally, the Open Scrolls Archive used "Storyline 1.8", fanfic software written by iodesigns. Unfortunately, iodesigns
stopped distributing the software and there were many bugs and security holes in the software (you could even edit other people's profiles!).
C A Moore very kindly helped us to start, and provided a few tips about optimising the original
code. That got us to look at the entire system. We re-wrote the software from
the ground up, adding many new features along the way. Since that time, the site has been re-written twice.
The forum uses phpBB, but this has been married to the security model used for the story archives.
